Truth Among Ashes - Get Away

I am overwhelmed
With feelings of despair
Life pushes me down
And at bottom, nothing is there
Dreams turn into nightmares
The longer I'm asleep
And when I awaken
The nightmares become my reality

I just wanna get away
From my own mind
The more I fight, the more it aches
To say my goodbyes
I just wanna get away
From the curse of life
The heavy weight of my mistakes
Crushes me

Time is speeding up
And I can't catch my breath
I can run no longer
None can outrun the kiss of death

Only fools seek eternity
When your life ends, that's when you're freed
I can't suffer more when I'm gone
But the people that I leave behind, forever mourn

I just wanna get away
From my own mind
The more I fight, the more it aches
To say my goodbyes
I just wanna get away
From the curse of life
The heavy weight of my mistakes
Crushes me

I just wanna get away
From my own mind
But the more I fight, I realize
I can't say goodbye
I just wanna get away
But I know it's not right
So for you I'll try my best to stay
In this life
